Research is critical for the continued development of ET nursing knowledge. Although ET nurses have an interest in research, some may lack understanding of basic terms used in quantitative research. This article is a research primer that focuses on basic information about the research process. Information is presented…

The hypothesis that self-perceptions would be more advanced developmentally than peer perceptions was assessed. The sample consisted of 80 males between 15 and 18 years of age. A structured interview was employed to obtain descriptions of self and a best friend. These data were coded into systems defining the construct…

Do the results of a scientific study influence confidence in the study's validity and the magnitude of change in the resulting perceived danger of the health risk investigated? Findings from the three investigations reported here indicate that scientific results that confirm a danger (negative results) do affect confid…

The dentato-rubro-olivary pathway, also known as the Guillain-Mollaret triangle (GMT) or myoclonic triangle, consists of the dentate nucleus, the red nucleus, and the inferior olivary nucleus (ION). GMT is important for motor coordination and control, and abnormalities in this network can lead to various neurological d…

One of the central ethical tenets of research in developing countries is the sponsor's obligation to benefit host participants and communities. Two known models of benefits provision dominate the ethical discourse of research in developing countries. The first model, known as the "reasonable availability," endorses the…

Over 60,500 dengue cases were reported in the state of Espírito Santo (ES), Brazil, between 1995 and 1998. The study's purpose was to identify whether Aedes albopictus was transmitting the dengue virus during an epidemic in the locality of Vila Beth nia (Viana County),Vitória, ES. From April 3 to 9, 1998, blo…

This study's goal was to evaluate the pilot exclusive lane for motorcycles (Motovía) in Cali, Colombia, from the perception of its users in 2012-2013. A cross-sectional study using roadside surveys plus a qualitative component of individual semi-structured interviews was carried out. Road users' perceptions were i…

OBJECTIVES: The frequency-following response (FFR) is gaining momentum to investigate central auditory processing in both audiological sciences and cognitive neuroscience. In previous research, FFRs have been most often elicited by the /da/ stimulus. Recently, we introduced the diphthong /oa/, particularly for infant s…

This study's goal was to better explain memory and its decline in a natural setting to improve social work practice among the elderly. The effect that bimodal (verbal and visual) presentation of information has on delayed incidental recall was compared with unimodal (verbal only) presentation. A significant increase oc…

This paper is a reply to a critique of Eilers, Gavin, and Wilson (1979) by Aslin and Pisoni (this issue). The reply argues that the critics' contentions are basically unwarranted on both methodological and conceptual grounds. The critique is largely based on misunderstandings of the study's purposes and procedures.

The concentration of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in the peripheral blood of COVID-19 patients is increased. Nevertheless, their potential role in the transmission of infection remains unclear. This study was performed to determine whether EVs produced by the sub-genomic replicon system developed in Baby Hamster Kidney…

To use a visualized method, tipping-point analysis to address missing data in clinical study and discuss related problems. All the possible outcomes caused by missing data were listed and the tipping points where-values of hypothesis test changed at 0.05 significant level were found out, then the ratio of<0.05 was calc…

The aim of this study was to assess the association between NF1 and PTEN gene polymorphisms and the risk of soft tissue sarcomas (STSs). This case-control study collected peripheral blood from 136 patients with STSs and 124 healthy controls. Six single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the NF1 gene and five SNPs of th…

The main objective of this research is to examine whether the implementation of new human resource management practices (NHRM) can enhance innovative performance (IP) by fostering innovation capability (NC). Additionally, it examines the moderating influence of an innovative climate (IC) and its associated attributes o…

P-values are often calculated when testing hypotheses in quantitative settings, and low P-values are typically used as evidential measures to support research findings in published medical research. This article reviews old and new arguments questioning the evidential value of P-values. Critiques of the P-value include…

In order to become knowledgeable consumers of nursing research, nursing students must be able to critically read research and determine the study's value for nursing practice. As the number of nursing intervention studies rises and research topics are studied more extensively, the use of meta-analysis in the discipline…

A histopathologic analysis of regional lymph node specimens in 48 patients with previously untreated squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx was performed to determine which parameters, if any, correlated with 3-year patient survival. The presence of sinus histiocytosis in lymph nodes containing metastatic squamous cell…

OBJECTIVES: Transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) is a promising tool for modulating neural activity, but tES has poor penetrability and spatiotemporal resolution compared to invasive techniques like deep brain stimulation (DBS). Interferential strategies for alternating-current stimulation (IF-tACS) and pulsed/int…

We overwhelmingly utilize (partially) informed consent for, and debriefing of, human research participants. Also common is the practice of reconsent, particularly where changes in study protocols (or in participants themselves) occur midstream - participants consent again to remaining in the project or to having their…
